The only problem that Trump had with it was that Obama was the one who had signed it.
The war in Iran (or whose war is it anyways?)

Apparently.
That mirrors Trump's attempt to undermine Obamacare.
So what you're confessing here Mr. President is that you blindly promised in your profound and continuing ignorance,
to achieve what the experts failed to achieve.
Did you actually believe you could keep this promise?
And now that you've learned you can't. Any possibility you'll learn from your prior absurd arrogance, and curtail these flagrant administration blunders?

S2,
Until I read your #223 I wouldn't have thought it possible to enlighten and obfuscate at the same time.
The newspaper didn't invent vulnerability. Sensible humanity has understood the concept for thousands of years.
BUT !
Even if Trump didn't know 20% of global oil transits the Strait, as President
Trump was obliged to know an even more fundamental reality.
It is imprudent to opt for War as long as there is a prospect for peace.
Trump shrugged that off, if he ever considered it at all.
Bottom line: Trump's lavish gift to Iran is the empowerment of controlling a choke-hold on the global economy,
Trump further demonstrating Earth's most capable military is powerless to defend it. And Trump (& the world) would not have had to learn this painful lesson if Trump had exercised due discretion before opting to wage War on Iran again.
Seems like a common precedent, such as the main cause of WWI was the assassination of Archduke Ferdinand and his wife by Russia.
Russia tried to hide behind Serbia, the Black Hand secret police, and Gavrilo Princip, but the investigation quickly saw through the subterfuge.
